DT 125 - Mike Vardy and Michael Craggs

After the better part of 3 years it is moving day on Dotto Tech. We have switched from our traditional Wednesday Night timeslot to Thursday.

We have a terrific show for this first of our Thursday Night offerings.  Mike Vardy leads off talking productivity and more productivity.

Then we welcome a new guest, Michael Craggs of Ergo Canada, ergonomic specialists, we are going to talk about "Sit/Stand Desks" and options. I am really intrigued by this concept!

DT 124 - Blackberry, Galaxy Gear & KickStarter

This week the Globe and Mail published an outstanding report on where BlackBerry went wrong, Jacquie McNish was one of the lead writers on the feature. She joined us to discuss what they found, and where the blame can be placed, and there is a lot of blame to spread around! You can find the report at The Globe & Mail.

Ken Price, of Samsung fills us in on 2 of Samsung's flagship products for the winter, the humungous Note 3, and the intriguing Galaxy Gear smart watch. Chris Hobbs, one of Two Tall Totems and his brother, David, the other Tall Totem have developed some very cool collaborate screen technology for tablets (www.tttlabs.com), with an educational application to start but far more potential in the enterprise and business space to come. They also floated the project as one of the first Kickstarter projects in Canada, an interesting experience t say the least.

DT 121- Storytelling and iPhones

As is usual every September Apple announced new iPhones for an eager and rabid audience.  It remains to be seen if this year's crop of new iOS devices does indeed find a willing audience. 

Gillan Shaw of the Vancouver Sun offers her perspective.

Storytelling is the domain of Marty Strong and Erica Hargrave, who join us to talk about both the art of storytelling in both the analog and digital domain.  It is a skill more people should master. Erica and Marty teach their craft at BCIT.
